I think it varies by individual (of course) and by region.
Here, we are relatively close to a major osteopathic medical school and historically the tuition was lower, academic requirements less stringent, and program was shorter than for regular medical school. We have hordes of osteopaths and the theoretically alternative credential doesn't mean *anything* in terms of their practice. Most don't do adjustments and practice just like any M.D. In fact, I know several OB/GYNs who are D.O.'s, not M.D.s, and they are just as gung-ho about routine high interventions with normal pregnancy and labors and have c-section rates as high as any OB/GYN with an M.D. Best bet is to ask around with people who prefer a crunchier physician and, as you're already doing, keeping your eyes and ears wide open when you visit. |

Our beloved Hamed Sinno is back, and this time with a more personal twist.
Featured in a charming interview on youtube, Sinno reveals personal details (his first crush was Sara Barazi) that are sure to make any fan girl (or boy) squeal. Though much of the interview is basically indecipherable because somebody decided to add a Leila track right over it, it's still worth a watch purely because Hamed Sinno's face is in it.
Want more of the Mashrou' Leila crooner? Check out another interview with him in My Kali magazine and see if you get your fill. Or you could just do what I did and watch his sexy dance moves over and over. Because why not?

Griffin (The Invisible Man)
This article does not cite any references or sources. (December 2009) |
Doctor Griffin is a fictional character, also known as The Invisible Man, who appears as the titular protagonist in H.G. Wells' 1897 science fiction novela The Invisible Man. In the original novel, Griffin is a scientist whose research in optics and experiments into changing the human body's refractive index to that of air results in his becoming invisible. The character has become iconic, particularly in horror fiction, and versions and variations have appeared throughout various media.
Character overview[edit]
Griffin is a brilliant research scientist who discovers a formula for making a human being invisible. The formula entails taking opium and another drug, which make his blood clear, then processing his body in a radiator engine. It succeeds, but he finds himself unable to reverse the process. Unlike the character in the 1933 film, the Griffin of the novel is possibly a psychopath, even before he makes himself invisible.
Fictional character biography[edit]
Griffin is a gifted young university medical student with albinism, who studies optical density. He believes he is on the verge of a great scientific discovery, but feels uncomfortable working under his professor. To ensure he gets sole credit for the discovery, he leaves university and moves to a dingy apartment to continue his experiments alone.
To finance his experiments, Griffin robs his own father, which drives the father to commit suicide (since the money had not even been his own). Working reclusively in his flat, Griffin invents a formula to bend light and decrease the refractive index of physical objects, making them invisible. He intends from the start to perform the process on neighbours' cat and then on himself, but is forced to rush his experiments due to persistent intrusion from his landlord, who is suspicious of his activities. He processes himself to hide from his landlord, and sets fire to the building to cover his tracks. He winds up alone, wandering invisible and naked through the streets of London, struggling to survive out in the open, unseen by those around him.
To make himself visible again, Griffin steals some clothes from a dingy backstreet theatre shop, including a trenchcoat and hat. He wraps his head in bandages to conceal his invisibility, covering his eyes with large dark goggles. He takes up residence in the Coach and Horses Inn in the village of Iping, so he can reverse his experiment in a quiet environment, but complications arise with locals unnerved by his appearance. As a result, his progress slows and he has insufficient money to satisfy the pub owners. To pay the bill, Griffin burgles the home of Reverend Bunting. The police pursue him, and in a fit of frustrated anger he reveals his invisibility by throwing off his clothes and escaping.
Now driven insane by his inability to reverse the experiment, Griffin seeks assistance from a tramp named Thomas Marvel. He has Marvel carry money for him, but Marvel runs away with the money. Griffin pursues him to the town of Port Burdock, where he runs into his old schoolmate Dr. Kemp. Still bitter and angry towards the rest of humanity, Griffin attempts to convince Kemp to be his visible partner and help him begin a "reign of terror". Kemp, rather than assisting the crazed Invisible Man, alerts Colonel Adye of the Port Burdock police. Furious, Griffin vows to kill Kemp, but is forced to flee. Kemp rallies the people of Port Burdock, who find and overcome Griffin when he attempts a one-man siege on Kemp's house. Griffin is surrounded and beaten to death by a mob of navvies. The invisibility wears off in death, and Griffin's corpse becomes visible again.
1933 Universal Studios version[edit]
In the 1933 film The Invisible Man, Griffin's first name is Jack (the novel never reveals his first name). He was played by Claude Rains.
Jack Griffin works for Dr. Cranley, assisting him in food preservation experiments alongside his friend Dr. Arthur Kemp. Griffin is deeply in love with Cranley's daughter, Flora, and the two plan to marry, but Griffin is poor and thus afraid he has nothing to offer her. He begins experimenting with an obscure and dangerous drug called monocane, hoping his work will make him rich and famous—and a worthwhile husband for Flora.
Griffin discovers a combination of monocane and other chemicals that makes a person invisible. Too excited by his discovery to think clearly, Griffin leaves Kemp and the Cranleys to complete the experiment in solitude. He injects himself with the formula over the course of a month, and becomes invisible. Only after he is invisible does he realize he doesn't know how to reverse the process.
Panicking, Griffin goes to the village of Iping and rents a room in the Lion's Head Inn, where he begins searching for a formula to reverse the invisibility. He makes himself appear visible by wrapping his head in bandages and wearing dark goggles.
Curious locals, maddening side-effects of monocane, and frustration from multiple failed tests drive Griffin insane. After he assaults Jenny Hall and severely injures her husband, Herbert, Griffin is confronted by the police, but sheds his clothing to be invisible and eludes them. He seeks help from Kemp, but the monocane has so affected his mind that he succumbs to megalomania and plans world domination with "invisible armies". He wants to make Kemp his visible partner and assistant.
Not even a visit from Flora and her father helps ease Griffin's increasing insanity. He vows to kill Kemp after his old friend alerts Inspector Lane to his whereabouts, and despite intensive police protection surrounding Kemp, Griffin eventually makes good on his threats. After killing Kemp by tying him up in his car and sending it over a cliff, he seeks refuge from the cold in a farmer's barn. The farmer summons police, who set fire to the barn. As Griffin flees the burning barn, the Chief of Detectives, who can see his footprints in the snow, shoots at him, the shot passing through both of his lungs.
Griffin dies from the gunshot wounds in the hospital. During this the effects of the monocane begin to wear off, and Griffin returns to sanity, apologizing for his crimes, saying, "I meddled in things man must leave alone." The invisibility also wears off in death, and Griffin's body becomes visible again.
The film portrays Griffin more sympathetically than does the novel. The novel's Griffin is callous and cruel from the beginning, and only pursues the experiment for wealth and his ego. The movie shows Griffin as an honorable man who is misguided. His insanity is purely a side-effect of the invisibility drug, and his motivation for the experiment was a misguided desire to do good for science and mankind, born primarily out of his love for his fiancée.
Other character appearances[edit]
Mad Monster Party?[edit]
The Invisible Man appears in Mad Monster Party? voiced by Allen Swift impersonating Sydney Greenstreet. This depiction of the Invisible Man is shown to wear a fez, some sunglasses, and a house robe. He is among the monsters invited by Baron Boris von Frankenstein to attend his meeting at his castle on the Isle of Evil in the Caribbean Sea.
Mad Mad Mad Monsters[edit]
The Invisible Man appears in Mad Mad Mad Monsters (a "prequel of sorts" of Mad Monster Party?) voiced again by Allen Swift. He, his invisible wife Nagatha, and the Invisible Boy are invited by Baron Henry von Frankenstein to attend the wedding of Frankenstein's Monster and the Monster's Mate at the Transylvania Astoria Hotel.
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen[edit]
In Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill's comic book series, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Hawley Griffin is depicted as a member of the Victorian-era team of agents for which the series is named. Griffin is given the first name "Hawley" in the title (as a reference to Hawley Crippen), and it is explained that the Invisible Man killed at the end of the book was actually a half-wit albino that Griffin made invisible as a guinea pig, allowing him to escape to Rosa Coote's boarding school. He is portrayed as a psychopath and a murderer, as in the novel. He is eventually killed by Mister Hyde, who has actually been able to see him all along, after assaulting Mina Murray, breaking her nose and knocking her unconscious, and betraying his teammates to the Martians, stealing military plans for them so he could rule the World with them, and telling them to disable Nemo's submarine by doing something to the water, which is why the Red Weed is used. Moore commented that it seemed fitting for Griffin to join the Martians as both hailed from novels by H. G. Wells.
In the film version, he is called Rodney Skinner due to copyright issues and is played by Tony Curran. The name change is explained by the fact that Skinner was a thief who stole the invisibility formula from the original Invisible Man (presumably Griffin). The fact that his skin is invisible is also related to his name of "Skinner". Skin samples of him are taken by Dorian Grey for Professor Moriarty, allowing him to duplicate the invisibility process, but Skinner himself remains loyal to the League, infiltrating Moriarty's base and working out how best to destroy it. At the film's conclusion, the plans are lost through a hole in the ice when Moriarty is shot, with Moriarty's own invisible man being shot by Allan Quatermain when threatening Tom Sawyer.
The Martian War[edit]
Kevin J. Anderson's later book The Martian War reuses the name Hawley Griffin for the Invisible Man.
Anno Dracula[edit]
Griffin makes a brief cameo in Kim Newman's Anno Dracula (1992). Present during the basement meeting between Beauregard and Doctor Fu Manchu, he is described as a scientist and as "an albino who seemed to fade into the background."
The Invisible Man (2000 TV series)[edit]
On The Invisible Man television series on Syfy, the character was a thief, played by Vincent Ventresca whose brother was a scientist who worked on the development of the invisibility gland. His character's nom de guerre was Swiss German, Arnaud DeFöhn,played by Joel Bissonnette although he went by the Swiss French name Arnaud De Thiel as a cover, while working on the gland. In attempting to retrieve the gland, he later uses the pseudonym Hawley Griffin (a reference to the League of Extraordinary Gentleman and the original Invisible Man), pretending to be a CIA agent from the South.
The Nobody[edit]
In Jeff Lemire's The Nobody the Invisible Man is named "John Griffen". John Griffen goes through a similar episode as the Invisible Man's "Griffin" does. Both men hide out in an Inn in a small town, only to be driven out because of fear and curiosity.
Hotel Transylvania[edit]
In Genndy Tartakovsky's 2012 Sony Pictures animated film Hotel Transylvania, Griffin the Invisible Man (voiced by David Spade) is one of the supporting character monsters who checks in to Hotel Transylvania, and is among the circle of friends to Dracula (the story's protagonist). This version is completely invisible, and his glasses are the only thing that can be seen in the movie. Gags centering on him rely on his invisibility. During a pool party scene, one partygoer pulls Griffin's swim trunks down causing him embarrassment even though he is invisible. In another scene in the sauna when Dracula (Adam Sandler) makes a disparaging remark about people with red curly hair, Griffin takes offense to this, saying that he has red curly hair: though it wasn't visible. Other jokes include hotel newcomer Johnny putting his hand inside of Griffin's mouth just to see if it would disappear and Griffin later getting really mad about it when he comes to know Johnny was a human, Wayne and Wanda's werewolf pups attacking him whenever he holds bacon and doing really badly at charades.

Daniel James Brown
Rowers will appreciate this look at what the sport was like in the early 20th century, with accounts of how hugely popular rowing was as a spectator sport at the time and with portraits of iconic figures like boatbuilder George Pocock. But even non-crew fans will appreciate the way Brown sets up this story of a group of underdogs who fought their way to win the gold medal at the Olympics in 1936 - held in a Berlin that was under Adolf Hitler's rule. The author creates a vivid portrait of his main character, gutsy rower Joe Rantz, whose childhood was rough and tough - and that was even before his father and stepmother abandoned him at age 15, leaving him to fend for himself. But the author also frames everything in terms of history: Nazi Germany's rise; America's struggling economy; and the dramatic and dangerous dust storms that whipped the U.S. Local angle alert: There are a few fleeting mentions of the Yale-Harvard Regatta in New London - including an FDR trip to see his son row here.
The Kiss of Spirit and Flesh
It's about to be high summer, and the humidity's so ridiculous that breathing feels like eating fog. Consider, then, relaxing to the lilting, crisp and autumnal music of Leafblade, a collaboration between Anathema guitarist/producer Danny Cavanagh and poet/musician Sean Jude. The sounds and images are very pastoral and evocative of Ancient Times in the British Isles - the sort of material you'd associate with Fovea Hex, King Creosote, Marillion, the Pan-happy era of the Waterboys, or Sand Snowman. Feel free, as you listen, to pray to an antler'd stag-god of antiquity!

Massachusetts Greenhouse Destroyed In Ball Of Fire
A spectacular night fire, punctuated by exploding propane tanks, destroyed part of a greenhouse business in Raynham.
The fire broke out at Olson's Greenhouses at about 10 p.m. Tuesday. The flames turned the night sky orange, and propane tanks used to heat the greenhouses exploded.
No injuries were reported.
The Raynham Fire Department sounded four alarms and called in firefighters from surrounding communities. It took about three hours to get the flames under control.
Firefighters worried the smoke might have contained potentially dangerous fertilizers and pesticides. The Raynham Fire Department called in a hazardous materials team as a precaution.
The state Department of Environmental Management sent agents to investigate risks, including whether runoff from hoses caused any contamination.
Owner Clive Olson said he lost plants and equipment. His business employs about 40 people.
"It gives us a serious setback right now," he said.
The fire destroyed the rear third of the greenhouse complex. Investigators will dig through rubble to find out what caused it.
"The upper range, which is about 100,000 square feet, that's still intact. We're trying to get the electricity back into it now," Olson said. "It's the lower range where we have the major problem."
Olson's staffers are moving plants that survived to other greenhouses whose owners offered help.

Carrey and Carell reunite to bring the magic.
It's pretty clear that Jim Carrey and Steve Carell like working together. The pair first worked together in 2003's Bruce Almighty, then both did voice work in 2008's Horton Hears a Who. In 2011, Carrey appeared in an episode of The Office, but it was the first to lack Carell as the show's lead. Finally, the two actors are together again for the upcoming comedy Burt Wonderstone playing rival magicians.
Carell plays the title role, one half of a magic act that also includes his longtime partner Anton Marvelton (Steve Buscemi). However, a rift forms between the two as a rising street magician named Steve Gray (Carrey) threatens to end their Las Vegas careers. As seen in the first trailer, Wonderstone must try to rediscover his love of magic, and finds help from the elderly Rance Holloway (Alan Arkin, reuniting with Carell for the first time since 2008's Get Smart), who inspired Wonderstone to become a magician in the first place.

CHICAGO - A former Chicago school principal, whose home computer contained hundreds of illegal images of child pornography when he was arrested, was sentenced yesterday to 20 years in prison following his guilty plea. This sentence resulted from an investigation by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
Dr. Joseph Nurek, 57, was sentenced Sept. 4 in federal district court by U.S. District Judge Wayne Andersen to 20 years in federal prison, the statutory maximum, on one count of receiving child pornography. Nurek was ordered to pay a $50,000 fine and participate in a sex offender rehabilitation program. Nurek also agreed to pay about $500,000 in restitution to his child-abused victims for counseling and other treatment.
Nurek was employed as a principal at the Chicago International Charter Schools West Belden Campus when ICE agents arrested him in March 2004 after executing a search warrant at his Chicago residence. A forensic exam of his home computer revealed hundreds of images of child pornography involving young boys engaged in sexually explicit activities, and multiple videos containing child pornography.
In June 2004 Nurek was indicted on eight counts of receiving and possessing child pornography. In October of that year Nurek was indicted by a grand jury on additional charges that he transported minors across state lines with the intent to engage in sexual activity. He pleaded guilty in December to one count of receiving child pornography, but yesterday's sentencing took into account all the conduct contained in the charges against him. Nurek had been held in federal custody without bond since October 2004.
"ICE is committed to bringing all of its law enforcement resources to bear on cases like this that involve the greatest violations of public trust," said Elissa A. Brown, special agent-in-charge of the office of ICE investigations in Chicago. "We've made it an agency priority to stop individuals from using the Internet to abuse and exploit innocent children. ICE is committed to protecting those who cannot protect themselves, and the victims of child sexual exploitation are at the top of that list."
Nurek's arrest is part of a global ICE child pornography investigation that focused on an Internet billing company based in Minsk, Belarus, and its affiliated entities in the United States. In January 2004, the Belarus firm was charged with money laundering, as well as providing credit card billing services for 50 child pornography websites worldwide and operating child porn websites on its own. After dismantling the leadership of the enterprise, ICE agents turned its focus to customers who purchased child pornography subscriptions, including Nurek.
Nurek's arrest and prosecution were part of Operation Predator, ICE's comprehensive initiative to safeguard children from foreign national pedophiles, international sex tourists, Internet child pornographers, and human traffickers. Since Operation Predator was launched in July 2003, ICE agents have arrested more than 10,000 individuals nationwide, including more than 540 in Illinois…
A compilation of news articles about charter schools which have been charged with, or are highly suspected of, tampering with admissions, grades, attendance and testing; misuse of funds and embezzlement; engaging in nepotism and conflicts of interest; engaging in complicated and shady real estate deals; and/or have been engaging in other questionable, unethical, borderline-legal, or illegal activities. This is also a record of charter school instability and other unsavory tidbits.

Malvo's attorney from his first trial, Craig Cooley, told The Associated Press that Malvo only knew what Muhammed told him and was therefore not the best source of true information about the murder.
But it appears clear that the pair did kill Taylor. And somehow, Witz said, knowing what happened has helped her down the road to healing. And potentially forgiveness.
"I want to have forgiveness in my heart," she said. "I want to believe that he is truly sorry. I want to know that he is going to think about this every day. I will probably never find out how this happened. But I want to find closure in my own heart."
"I never wrote to Muhammed," she said. "I am happy to carry hatred in my heart for him. I could care less if he rotted."
Witz said she is still hoping for a letter from Malvo and may at some point seek to visit him in prison.
"My family did not want me to pursue this," she said. "They would be happy not knowing. But that is not me. I want to let go, but I need some answers to do that."
She said that as a mother, she has begun to feel a strange and sometimes uncomfortable bit of tenderness toward Malvo.
"I think Malvo is still a child in many ways," Witz said. "I think he needs to forgive himself before his justice day."
She said that more than five years later, she is still very pained at the thought of how her father died.
Her pursuit of Malvo, the dramatic phone call and her work toward forgiving the young man, it seems, are as much about being a daughter as they are about being a mother.
"I never want my father to be forgotten," she said.

Don't apologize for your wrinkles! I didn't even notice them until you pointed them out, and then I scrolled back up to look and thought way more about them than I would have otherwise.
I'm only pointing this out because I almost apologized for wrinkles in a blog post the other day, and then told myself that that would only make more people notice them. No one mentioned mine, so I'm just going to pretend they went undetected. I stand by this strategy. The jeans were a good call with that trench, regardless of the weather :). And I love the bright booties.

The Prairie View A&M University family is mourning the loss of Dr. Marion Henry, a legend in the history of the University. Henry passed away Sunday, June 3, 2012 in Houston. He was the Director of Teacher Certification and professor of Educational Research in the Department of Educational Leadership and Counseling.
A native of Dallas, Texas, Henry was an institution on the PVAMU campus, spending just shy of 56 years at the University. During his years with PVAMU, Henry was a beloved professor and mentor who challenged students to embody excellence in their educational pursuits and professional careers.
Henry played an integral part in education of thousands of students in the Whitlowe R. Green College of Education. He was Director of the Learning Resource Center; head of the department of curriculum and foundation and head of the department of educational media and technology. In 2011, he was selected as a member of the inaugural class of the Chancellor's Academy of Teacher Educators, a Texas A&M University System initiative acknowledging teaching excellence.
Henry was the former director of athletics and was an active supporter of PVAMU sports. He was also public announcer for track and field events, chief clerk of the course, chief finish judge and a member of the Prairie View Sports Official Association. In 1995, Henry was honored with a street bearing his name. Marion Henry Drive runs alongside the famed William "Billy" J. Nicks, Sr. Fieldhouse and leads to the university's stadium, Blackshear Field.
While Henry's influence in the Whitlowe R. Green College of Education is clear, his impact has been felt by every student crossing the stage at graduation as a major figure in the commencement exercises. He served as Chairman of the Commencement Committee for more than 50 years, even serving as the Commencement Marshall for nearly three decades, retiring from the post in fall 2011. In a magazine interview last year, Henry said one of his greatest honors was assisting with the development of the University Mace, Medallion and Podium in 1983.
Henry earned his bachelor's degree from Southern University and A&M College. He completed his master's at Bradley University and earned a Ph.D. from Syracuse University.
Visitation will be held from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Friday at the William "Billy" J. Nicks, Sr. Building at PVAMU. A rosary will be held at 6 p.m. followed by the Knight of Columbus at 6:30 p.m. An Omega Psi Phi memorial service will be held at 7 p.m. Visitation will continue at 10 a.m. Saturday until the time of service at 11 a.m. in the Nicks Building. Interment will follow in the Prairie View Memorial Cemetery.

My family is looking at taking an extended trip this next summer to some of the national parks out west (we live in Michigan). As of right now, there are 5 that we have collaboratively thought about - Rocky Mountain, Grand Canyon, Redwood, Glacier and Yellowstone. My concern is that we might be biting off more then we can chew, and my big question is, is Redwood worth the extra 1200 miles we would be driving? Our most important stops are the Grand Canyon and Glacier. i wish we had more time, but were trying to do as much as we can before our son graduates from high school in a couple of years, so were trying to slam as much in as we can in 18 days. is there any other suggestion that we do not have listed? Thanks so much!
Possible National Park trip

Why not skip Redwood and hit Bryce and Zion in Utah? Perhaps Carlsbad cavern in New Mexico?
Report Abuse
I don't know where in Michigan you are starting from, but using Detroit I came up with about 5,100 miles and that was leaving off the Redwoods. I would definitely forget the Redwoods on this trip or all you will be doing is driving and seeing the parks from your vehicle.
If you are flying into Glacier and renting a car and flying home from Denver I would say you had plenty of time but if you're driving all the way, then I think you will be spending to much time in the vehcile for all you want to do.
Here is an example of what you're looking at:
Day 1, 2 & 3 will be driving almost 600 miles per day from Detroit to East Glacier. (1790 miles)
Day 4 & 5 will be Glacier since it's high on your list you will want to spend two days here at the very least.
Day 6 You will drive from Glacier to Yellowstone. (360 miles)
Day 7 & 8 For Yellowstone. Yellowstone is so much more than just Old Faithful, so plan on at least two days here but it would be easy to spend a week here.
Day 9 & 10 to drive to the Grand Canyon. Make sure you at least drive thought the Grand Tetons when you leave Yellowstone. (785 to 835 miles depending on route)
Zion and Bryce were mentioned as places to hit. It wouldn't add much in mileage but they would take up another two nights and two days of your trip. Carlsbad Cavern's would be to much out of your way.
Day 11 & 12 Two days at Grand Canyon since it's also high on your list. You can visit all the scenic overlooks.
Day 13 & 14 to drive to the Rocky Mountains is 755 miles
DAy 15 to see Rocky Mountains.
Day 16, 17 & 18 to drive back home 430 miles per day.
In summary you will be doing 11 long days of driving of this 18 day trip. You want to make sure your son WANTS to take another trip with you! If this was my trip with my son's I'd either add more days to the trip or I'd save the Grand Canyon for another trip. On that next trip you could add some of the other beautiful parks in Utah like Zion, Bryce, Arches and Canyonlands.

I've been to 43 national parks, many of them more than once, and I can say, unequivocally, that Redwoods is NOT worth an extra 1500 miles in driving. Yosemite & Sequoia together, MAYBE (best to save California NP for another day), but Redwoods alone, absolutely not.
Eighteen days just to see the other four NPs, when starting from Michigan, will be quite an ordeal, so leave off Redwoods. -
Report Abuse
I would not consider the amount of driving it takes to go from Montana to Arizona (Grand Canyon) in an 18 day trip. Either do the northern half (Rocky Mnt. NP and north) or the southern half (southern Utah NPs, Mesa Verde NP, Indian country in Arizona, and possibly northern New Mexico). Leave out anything in California. Even so, it will be a rushed trip.
Report Abuse
Black Hills, Glacier, Yellowstone and Rocky Mountain makes way more sense than trying to squeeze in the Grand Canyon and/Redwoods.
Black Hills is right on the way anyway, you might as well take a few days there. I would save the Utah/Arizona/California parks for a separate trip(s). -
Report Abuse
I tend to agree with Paul and Michael.
My proposed route: Fly to Las Vegas (cheap rental cars) - See in this order - Hoover Dam, South Rim Grand Canyon, Monument Valley, Mesa Verde NP, Moab (Arches, Island in the Sky Canyonlands), Salt Lake City ((Mormon Tabernacle), Yellowstone NP (minimum 3 days), Glacier NP, Rocky Mountain NP. When you get back to Denver head back to Las Vegas. If you still have a little time left when you get back to LV, you could catch a couple of hours in Death Valley NP.
You might want to skip Rocky Mountain NP next year because of the forest fire which were followed by a big flood. There will be a lot of rebuilding and some unattractive scenery in that area. -
Report Abuse
I tend to agree with Paul and Michael.
I don't think so if from LV you suggest a trip that goes all the way to Glacier NP. -
Report Abuse
I live RNP but it does not make sense to include it in this trip. I would also drop the Grand Canyon.
Report Abuse
Well, you might be a bit late already to try and book "in park" lodging at these places. Which, IMOP, if by far the best option. How much hiking/kayaking/horse riding/etc. do you like to do at each of these places. I could spend a week in Glacier and Yellowstone and still have not scratched the surface. Some people like to spend just a couple of days.
Let's say your allowing 4 days for the driving, so that leaves you with 14 days.
Black Hills(which would include Mount Rushmore, Wind Cave, Jewel Cave, Badlands, Crazy Horse, Custer State Park), Yellowstone, Grand Tetons, and Glacier. You really don't want to be in Glacier until about Mid-July to make sure the roads are open.
Or you could do Arches, Capitol Reef, Canyonlands, Bryce, Zion,Grand Canyon, and Mesa Verde. Plus other good spots in Utah. Best done in late April and May. After June 1 things get brutally hot.
Or do a California route. Sequoia, Yosemite, Channel Islands, Redwoods. Personally, I like Sequoia trees far better than the Redwoods. Sequoia National Park to me is all about the trees and they are amazing there. Now, the Redwoods are certainly amazing too, I just like Sequoias that much better.
Probably best done 1st or 2nd week of June
Finally, A Pacific Northwest trip is cool too Mount Rainier, Olympic, San Juan Islands, Seattle, Portland, Coast, Columbia River Gorge, Crater Lake, Mount Hood, and Mount Saint Helens. Probably best done Late July/Early Augst -
Report Abuse
The nice thing about I-15 is that you can get from LV to Idaho Falls via SLC in 9 hours of Interstate driving. From Idaho Falls take US 20 through West Yellowstone to get into the park. Or, go via Driggs and see Grand Teton on the way into the south entrance of Yellowstone.
Final night in Yellowstone should be at Mammoth to get to Glacier before sunset the next day.
I would pass on Rocky Mountain because of the recent devastation. You should see at least 2 of the southern Utah National Parks even if you don't go to the Grand Canyon.
Include Redwood NP in a 10-12 day California National Park trip sometime in the future. -
Report Abuse
Thanks for all of the feedback. A lot of it depends on if we HAVE to go to Vegas or not. My daughter is a cheerleader, and cheer nationals is there in late July. We are planning this trip around that. We are coming from Grand Rapids, MI, and after talking to some friends, were thinking we may just head north and hit Glacier and yellowstone then make the stops we need to along the way. We are camping, so we are def driving as I'm not hauling all of that gear on a plane!

Rocky Mountain isn't as bad off as it sounds. At least not based on the current updates from the park's website:
http://www.nps.gov/romo/planyourvisit/flood_alert.htm -

Camping in the summer in the National Parks might require reservations or VERY EARLY arrival times to get first come, first serve camping. I don't think I'd take a chance at the Grand Canyon or Yellowstone for first come, first serve camping.
Glacier, Yellowstone and Grand Canyon do have pay use showers in the parks. The showers might not always be in or near the campground you stay at so it might take some driving to get a shower.
Camping will also eat up more time setting up and tearing down so keep that in mind. If the Cheer leading camp in Las Vegas is part of that 18 days, then you will have even less time to do the parks.

The other thing to keep in mind with Glacier and Yellowstone especially is that both parks are huge and that you will be spending a lot of time driving within the park once you arrive. You can still expect snow in the higher elevations at Glacier, but the Going to the Sun Road should be open. It normally opens around June 21st, but has opened as late as July 13 due to record snowfalls that winter.
Most camping is first come first serve within Glacier, but I think St. Mary campground does take reservations. Try to stay on the east side of the park, as it's the most scenic area - particularly Many Glacier.
There are a few campgrounds outside the park in the St. Mary area - Johnson's of St. Mary, St. Mary KOA and Elkhorn Cabins and Campground in Babb. -
Report Abuse
Fish Creek AND St. Mary's take camping reservations. All others are first come first served

Is Smashing Things a Good Way To Relieve Stress? (Clients of the Anger Room Sure Think So)

Have you ever had such a bad day that you just wanted to break something? Or maybe throw a piece of furniture across the room? Well, now a Texas entrepreneur has devised a socially acceptable way for you to spew your rage.
The Anger Room is the brainchild of Donna Alexander, who first launched the business out of her garage. Friends seeking to relieve stress would come over and take baseball bats to old junk in the room. When word got out about what they were doing, strangers began to show up and demand became too much to handle. That's when Alexander decided to turn the Anger Room into a legitimate business.
The Anger Room is the brainchild of Donna Alexander, who first launched the business out of her garage. Friends seeking to relieve stress would come over and take baseball bats to old junk in the room. When word got out about what they were doing, strangers began to show up and demand became too much to handle. That's when Alexander decided to turn the Anger Room into a legitimate business.
Now when clients come to the Anger Room's new location in a Dallas strip mall, they are decked out in safety goggles and helmets to protect themselves. They then enter a room filled with old furniture and electronics, arranged to look like an office, bedroom, or kitchen. Once inside, anything is fair game. You can smash, break, throw, and destroy to your heart's content.
If you want, you can also take out relationship stress on mannequins. Alexander told a Dallas TV station that some customers "put pictures on them, write on them, and then they try to beat the crap out of them."
Anger Room sessions are available in three time options: "I need a Break!"—$25 for 5 minutes; "Lash Out"—$45 for 15 minutes; and "Total Demolition"—$75 for 25 minutes. The rates are pretty affordable considering you don't have to collect the items or do any of the setup and cleanup.

Yes+4My reasoning behind this?
Humans before today were very very active ... hunter gatherers.. farmers... mightily busy .. physically busy busy active...
Using physical strength to relieve duress/stress is natural and is how we are "hardwired" internally to survive.
Source: Human History over aeons
Proofs i have witnessed? One of my neighbors husband died and she had young children .... huge responsibilites for their very lives , and her love for them is greater than her sorrow, greater than anything...
she , as so many people do.. could have chosen to not look indepth at her life , she could have chosen to take out her anger on her babies ... but she chose instead to find logical ways around the anger.. the sorrow ... the stress.. at night she would go outside into her backyard and chop wood for the fireplace, and then she would throw the pieces of wood as far as she was able until she became exhausted.
my mother used to go out and watch her and bring her some tea when she was finis.
Her innocent babies never knew a moment of anger from her related to the death of their beloved father, her most beloved half of herself.
i admire her so much. Just thinking about it makes my eyes fill with tears. - NarcolepticGoat 2012/05/13 13:19:43

Oh, you're right, but there are still plenty of ways to release negative energy without smashing things. Studies do show that acting in a rage just adds to stress.
+2Studies are not always correct though, not for everyone. I always feel much better after breaking and smashing things. It's different for everyone as not everyone is the same. Also studies can be skewed to get the results people want so I've never put much weight into those regardless.
I have tried meditating and whatnot. Problem is that I think too much, esp. when I'm angry, so sitting still isn't good for me, I gotta vent. I've tried creating too, like drawing, but really that just makes me far more frustrated because everything has to be just right and if it's not, well, I get even more angry.
But, smashing things tires me out to the point where I don't feel that rage anymore. I don't really feel happy afterward, but at least I don't feel angry anymore.
Point is, what works for you may not really work for other people. Some people vent by smashing things. If you still retain anger after that then smashing things should not be your outlet. But if it makes you feel better, then there's no reason it shouldn't be your outlet. So long as you don't hurt anyone or damage anything you own or someone else owns. But useless junk would be acceptable.
I've tried a bunch of things to release negative energy... so far the only thing that works is smashing things. Can't help it, that's just how I am. -
Have you tried heavy duty physical activity, like running, or cardio? I find that kind of thing helps me.
That said, I really considered what you said and I accept, now, the possibility that it 'could' help some people. -
+1Yes, that only gives me a headache. I usually just hurt myself when I attempt something like that because I don't have anyone around to control me. Even when I do I just bark at them to piss off and leave me alone. Also I always get lightheaded when I work out, I have medical problems. Plus working out gives me time to think and I hate thinking when I'm angry. It makes me homicidal.
Yes it could help some people. People manage, vent, whatever their anger in different ways. It makes sense that it would help some people, I'm one of them I would know. And I can't be the only one due to the sheer statistical improbability of that.

Timekeepers and Certifiers have access to SSN within the system and need to ensure that appropriate behaviors and safeguards are in place to protect the Privacy and Identity of current and former USGS employees by: logging out of the system when leaving your workstation, never disclosing your user id and password to other individuals, properly securing any printed materials which contain SSN, properly disposing of by shredding any printed materials that include SSN, and only sharing Privacy information with other authorized employees where there is a specific need and/or justification for access to such information.
Accountability and Separation of Duties
Based on Government Accounting Office guidelines, Certifiers (usually Supervisors) are accountable and legally responsible for ensuring employees are reporting their timesheets accurately, not Timekeepers. Supervisors may have Timekeepers monitor the arrival and departure times of employees under them, but it is the Supervisors who are ultimately responsible for certifying the accuracy of the timesheets of employees under them.
Timekeepers and Certifiers need to ensure that they assign an adequate number of authorized alternates who can operate in their absence. Sharing your own User Id and password with someone else to operate on your behalf or in your absence is a fundamental IT security violation. Alternate certifiers should be peers supervisors, higher-level supervisors and/or selected lower level supervisors and senior staff members.
In an examination of the "Separation of Duties" within USGS Financial systems during the financial audit, the auditors have ruled that it is inappropriate for an individual to be both a Timekeeper and Certifier for the same employee or group of employees. The NBC has made the necessary program changes to Quicktime to prevent any timecard from being certified and validated by the same person.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
- When are timecards due?
- What are the system requirements?
- What are the hours of system operation?
- Is it a mandatory requirement that "Leave request" and "Extra Hours Request" modules be used?
- How do I access Quicktime from a work location that is not on the USGS Intranet?
- I am a Timekeeper or Certifier, logged in and have selected a role. Why are the menu items inactive and I am not able to do anything in the system?
- What is the difference between an "Error" message and a "Warning" message when I verify or validate a timesheet?
- How do I get a password for Quicktime?
- Who is the administrator for Quicktime?
Timecards are to be completed (completed means verified, validated, and certified) by 12:00 noon EST on the Monday after the end of the payperiod for all payperiods unless notified by the Bureau Quicktime Administrator about early submissions.
What are the system requirements?
Access to the USGS Intranet using a recent version of Microsoft Internet Explorer, Netscape, or the Mozilla browser is all that is required.
The National Business Center policy on browser access to the system is that: "Microsoft Internet Explorer is the officially supported and recommended browser for using the system under Windows 2000/XP." We have tested using the system with recent versions of Netscape and Mozilla and it runs on those browsers without any problems. The only menu item that does not work is the "Exit" function. You can just close your browser as an alternative to this menu function.
For Mac users, Microsoft Internet Explorer and Safari do not work. Recent versions of Netscape 7 and Mozilla work on Mac OS X. Quicktime does not run using any browser under Mac OS 9.
What are the hours of system operation?
Monday to Saturday (with the exception below)
6:15 AM to 2:00 AM Eastern Time
4:15 AM to 12:00 AM Mountain Time
3:15 AM to 11:00 PM Pacific Time
Every Thursday (for updating of accounts, and bi-weekly for leave and profile information)
6:15 AM to 8:00 PM Eastern Time
4:15 AM to 6:00 PM Mountain Time
3:15 AM to 4:00 PM Pacific Time
Link to payroll schedules through 2020:
Quicktime has new "Leave request" and "Extra Hours Request" modules. It is a mandatory requirement that these be used?
No, they are provided as a convenience and are to be used at your supervisor's discretion. If you use leave but have not put a leave request into the system, you will receive several warning messages when you verify your timesheet. These warning messages can simply be ignored.
How do I access Quicktime from home, while I am on travel with a Notebook computer, or from a work location that is not on the USGS Intranet?
Quicktime Time and Attendance can be accessed on any Personally Owned Equipment (POE) with an internet connection, such as your home computer, tablet device, or mobile phone. I hope that this new feature will be particularly useful for those employees who spend many work hours in the field, traveling, or teleworking, who will no longer need to make unnecessary trips to the office just to input time and attendance.
To access Quicktime Time and Attendance remotely, just follow these steps:
- Update your browser's security settings (enable TLS)
- Connect to Quicktime Time and Attendance through the new DOI Apps Store (https://apps.doi.gov) – your username is what you use to login to your computer with, plus @usgs.gov at the end
I am a Timekeeper or Certifier, logged in and have selected a role. Why are the menu items inactive and I am not able to do anything in the system?
You are assigned as an alternate for another Timekeeper or Certifier. Be sure to select the appropriate role, click "OK" and than click your own name marked with the [self] tag from the pick list of "Available Alternates:".
What is the difference between an "Error" message and a "Warning" message when I verify or validate a timesheet?
An Error message begins with an "E" and the situation that caused the error must be corrected before the timesheet can pass the edits and be verified or validated. A Warning message begins with a "W" and provides information that might indicate a potential problem, but allows for the timesheet to be verified or validated.
How do I get a password for Quicktime?
Contact your timekeeper.
Who is the administrator for Quicktime?
Kathy Takacs is the Administrator for the entire Bureau and has the sole responsibility of transmitting the Quicktime payroll file to the NBC.

This is some what king related. Lord of the Flies A readers companion.Thought it should be interesting to have. I read Lord of the Flies a while back.
Thank you! It's a huge weight off my mind. Every time someone comes on here and says their entire collection was lost in a fire/flood/tornado of an ex I would get worried so I'm glad I finally did it!
(Btw, does anyone else feel like entire King collections seem to be destroyed at an abnormally high rate?)
Yeah, that's right. The old ones available on the 2nd hand market contain Rage -
But you can still get new printings of The Bachman Books featuring The Running Man, Roadwork, and The Long Walk -
I am quite surprised that the collective is not available in the US.
Well, maybe if we went on over to the Danielle Steel website and perused the threads there we might see that there have been losses to her readers book collections also? But, I get what you mean, there do seem to be a few members coming on here and stating that their collections were destroyed or given away by angry exes. You know the saying: everyone's a critic!
Oh wow, I got Carrie on paperback with a new copy....would that prompt a reread? Who knows?

Colm Toibin
An exemplary travel book, the result of 40 years wandering in provincial Spain...In Spain, the Romanesque churches stand in out-of-the-way places, they are graceful and understated...If novelists were churches, Nooteboom would be Romanesque. Nooteboom ranks with Gerald Brenan, Ian Gibson, and Robert Hughes as outsiders who have written great books about Spain this century. His book has the odd capacity to make you change your life, or at least consider doing so. These journeys, this way of traveling-slow, meditative, solitary, full of knowledge-this is how we all should travel.— The Washington Post

Properties affect performance in a lot of ways: 1. As already discussed, sending a message to do a load/store is slower than just doing the load/store inline. 2. Sending a message to do a load/store is also quite a bit more code that needs to be kept in i-cache: even if the getter/setter added zero extra instructions beyond just the load/store, there'd be a solid half-dozen extra instructions in the caller to set up the message send and handle the result. 3. Sending a message forces an entry for that selector to be kept in the method cache, and that memory generally sticks around in d-cache. This increases launch time, increases the static memory usage of your app, and makes context switches more painful. Since the method cache is specific to the dynamic class for an object, this problem increases the more you use KVO on it. 4. Sending a message forces all values in the function to be spilled to the stack (or kept in callee-save registers, which just means spilling at a different time). 5. Sending a message can have arbitrary side-effects and therefore forces the compiler to reset all of its assumptions about non-local memory. 6. A message send can have arbitrary side-effects and therefore cannot be hoisted, sunk, re-ordered, coalesced, or eliminated. 7. In ARC, the result of a message send will always get retained, either by the callee or the caller, even for +0 returns: even if the method doesn't retain/autorelease its result, the caller doesn't know that and has to try to take action to prevent the result from getting autoreleased. This can never be eliminated because message sends are not statically analyzable. 8. In ARC, because a setter method generally takes its argument at +0, there is no way to "transfer" a retain of that object (which, as discussed above, ARC usually has) into the ivar, so the value generally has to get retain/released twice. None of this means that they're always bad, of course — there are a lot of good reasons to use properties. Just keep in mind that, like many other language features, they're not free. John. |

Thank you for your well wishes yesterday. They are & were very meaningful to me! My really dear friend Lindsey introduced me to the Intel Visual Life series through this video, called, "The Expressionist" about designer Michael Wolff. It was beautiful and wonderful and inspiring. Certainly worth 6 minutes of your time. Thanks Linds :)
4 comments:
This is a really cool video and it led me to the other "Intel Visual Life" videos, it seems like a great series! I really like the things he says about creativity. I was a film production student so I get interested in projects like this :-) Thanks for sharing it! Your blog is cool and I really like your logo.

Create a personal look and feel to every message you send out, without the extra effort! RoboPostman allows you to custom tailor messages to include dynamic content specific to each recipient. Include birthdays, custom notes, links with rotating affiliate codes, and more. Use the "Visual" editor to create brilliant messages with fonts, colors, links, and images without needing to know HTML.
Manage address lists with an unlimited number of records and specify as many custom fields as desired. Include anniversaries, nicknames, phone numbers, or even security questions. Easily import and export these lists for future use in other messages, or use the powerful built-in Text, CSV or Address Book import features to retrieve data from other sources.
List scrubbing is a vital feature of RoboPostman that will help keep your mailing list clean. Have it automatically connect to a POP3 mail account and check for unsubscribe requests or bounce noitifcations. It will automatically scan your list, set the status of recipients to the applicable state (bounced or unsubsribed), and then delete the message from the mail server. If your campaign is huge and POP3 access is too slow for your purposes, have RoboPostman open a text file and scrub all e-mail addresses it finds.
RoboPostman is mail server friendly. Supporting Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and TLS encryption, it also boasts numerous fall-back techniques in the event servers return errors during a mail operation. Other useful features are the ability to specify a range of recipients in an address list to mail, and the ability to limit how many messages are sent per mail server connection.

As a subproject under the collaboration between Ruhuna University in Sri Lanka and Duke University, this study focused on the identification of socioeconomic and ecological determinants of febrile illness in Galle district. We integrated socioeconomic data from local government, ecological data from national geographic information system (GIS) database, and febrile patients' epidemiologic data from clinical investigation. The integrated database was prepared using GIS techniques and validated via field visits. Missing population data were simulated through Bayesian imputation. While the febrile disease risk is not measurable in the current study, social and ecological predictors of disease distribution (proportion of specific disease in all cases) were identified for the enrolled Teaching Hospital Karapitiya (THK) patients. These predictors are potentially the determinants of febrile disease in Galle. Due to the limitation of single-center clinical sampling, patient travel distance was highly associated with patient visits, thus, it became a strong confounder in analyses. After adjusted for the confounders, a set of patients' social/ecological exposures were found to be associated with dengue, leptospirosis, URTI, LRTI, gastroenteric infection, and/or undifferentiated febrile illness.

Thomas Lam from Nauticam deserves a lot of credit for taking the time to actually measure these (and basically every other lens on the market). The measurements were actually done twice by Thomas, and verified by Alan Dewey at Reef Photo.
The CMC magnification table listed in the press release is actual measured data, in water.
Working distance is measured from the front of the housing port, or front of accessory lens. It is the actual space between the underwater system and subject.
All of the systems listed achieved their best "native" magnification at their widest focal length, and very close to the subject.
All of the systems listed achieved the magnifications listed with CMC are at full telephoto. It is possible, but not likely that some of these could actually have slightly better magnification if you pulled the zoom back a couple of clicks. In the interest of consistency we didn't try to establish these situations. We wanted repeatable results.
CMC isn't just a simple diopter, so I'm going to try to resist those comparisons. The actual end magnification with today's top compacts (RX100m3, G7X, and LX100) was in line with simple housed +15 diopter macro lenses. There were noticeable image quality differences, though.
